Lady Vols hold off Mizzou in SEC clash

That’s what Tennessee coach Holly Warlick thought Sunday with nine seconds left and her Lady Vols ahead by two points.

Zaay Green and Rennia Davis double-teamed the Missouri women’s basketball senior as she drove into the lane, overpowering her so she wouldn’t get a last-second shot and tie the game.

Instead, Cunningham kicked the ball out to freshman Akira Levy at the top of the arc. Her shot for a 3-pointer bounced off the rim as Tennessee survived for a 62-60 win at Mizzou Arena.

“If I had Sophie Cunningham on my team, I’d go to her,” Warlick said.
